• Most of mine at both senior and junior school were alcoholics on some scale and having affairs with each other.

    Sadly two teachers at my junior school (CoE) were forced out due to being gay. One of them died of AIDS relatively soon after...feels like something from a film to show the historical context of the decade.

    Senior school was utter carnage. One of the less dark stories was from Mr. Headbutt who always commanded authority and routinely had to control the foreign students' English class "taught" by Mr. R. One day Mr Headbutt heard music coming from the other room, went in, and the students had squashed Mr. R behind his desk and a pile of theirs while two kids had a breakdancing battle.

    Mr. Headbutt so called because at one of the leaving ball/prom-type things a 6th former drunkenly went up to him and his wife and mouthed off, say "you can't do anything now I'm leaving". He headbutted him and broke his nose.

    TBH overall really enjoyed school (well as much as a teenager enjoys anything).
